One of my buddies in the Army told me a story of them getting ambushed once in Afghanistan. They called in for air support and got an A10, he said they could hear it firing, did a couple passes, then the ambush was just over. Silence.

@davemccombs 16 дней назад

It's odd hearing these stories, because sentiment toward the A-10 on the ground usually doesn't seem to fit this bill when the numbers are actually analyzed. Sure, the A-10 has a fun weapon, but it's horribly inaccurate and has caused more friendly fire casualties than virtually any other weapon platform not called a "suicide vest." I've heard from commanders that they would outright turn down CAS if an A-10 was all that was available for fear of losing as many of their own men as the enemy. Don't get me wrong. I love the A-10 as an aviation fan and have touched a few of them back in the 90's (where they damn near let you fly the damn things for $5, pre-911 lol), but from what I gather it hasn't been the "right" tool for any given CAS mission for at least 30 years.

@macieksoft 4 дня назад

@@davemccombs It is actually very accurate as for a gun. It is just the fact that attacking from the air in "danger close" situation is always dangerous. It is even more dangerous if you use bombs or unguided rockets.

My Dad was the crew chief on A-10 78-0593, “The fortune teller” - it flew the most sorties of any A-10 during the gulf war / desert storm. It was a testament to how well him and his crew maintained the plane. I spent two years looking for the plane, it was at moody last and then was a weapons barn load trainer (said the historian of the flying tigers). Word is it might have been dismantled. If anyone knows anything, let me know! Awesome video Sam!

We have one of these in our museum in Sacramento, complete with desert storm paint, kill markings and yes, bullet holes. Talking to a guy who flew one, he made a rather iconic statement. "If you hear the gun, you're already dead". A few more interesting bits of information, the aircraft was designed around the gun and engines can be mounted on either side to lessen the need for left or right specific parts. This is also the same engine used on the S2 Viking.

These are surpisingly agile actually. I was at an air show 5 years ago or so and they had a demo with A10s, and they demonstrated how they could strafe the field, pull up, hard bank turn and be right back down strafing the opposite direction in something like 20 seconds or maybe slightly more (it's been a few years) but it was damn impressive to watch--no live ammo at the air show, just the demo of it flying that pattern. They truly are awesome to be 50 years old and still that relevant to modern warfare.

His family later was interned and after the war he was released. He moved with his family to California. In the early 60's he put himself through college and became and engineer. Then he went to work for a company called Fairchild. There he went on to design the titanium bathtub for the A10. RIP Stan. You were a great guy.

The A-10 has the most freindly kills of any recent plane, because of the inaccuracies of the main gun. During the Iraq war, British crews declined having A-10s support them because of the chance of their team getting killed. While the F-35 can accurately launch a missile at a single person from over 10 miles away.
